The light wave—
a power that meant instant death upon contact.
At this moment, the power of Dragon Ball was finally recreated in this world!
Kaito grew excited.
"The attack is strong—but you still have to hit me first!"
"Eight Gates…"
"Fifth Gate — Gate of Limit, OPEN!!!"
Even Might Guy had to open the Gates one by one.
But inside the ROOM space, Kaito could open them all at once.
Boom!!!
Kaito's physical strength was on an entirely different level from any shinobi.
Opening the Fifth Gate already gave him an aura similar to Guy's Night Guy—
yet the scale of Kaito's burst was even greater!
The light wave arrived as expected.
Kaito seized the timing and, using finesse—like spiking a volleyball—deflected the beam upward.
At the same time, his body turned into a green blur and vanished from the rooftop.
The White-Masked Kaito used the Rinnegan and clearly saw the real Kaito approaching!
"Not good!"
"You're trying to break through head-on?! Not that easy!!!"
Crack—
The beam flew upward less than a kilometer before the surrounding air suddenly fell silent.
Then—
Blinding white light flooded everyone's vision, accompanied by crushing pressure from above!!!
BOOOOOOM!!!
In the central area of Amegakure, countless high-rise buildings had their upper floors erased by the shockwave!
At the critical moment, Jiraiya used a Toad Stomach Barrier, barely avoiding being crushed by collapsing structures.
At the same time, both projection fields became unstable…
Slowly, the image stabilized again.
Everyone finally saw the devastation outside.
"Amegakure… no… NO!!"
Konan collapsed, seeing the projected ruins.
Countless shop signs lay shattered.
Most tall buildings were missing entire sections.
Then the battlefield image returned.
A massive fist of compressed air—
shaped like a white tiger—charged forward!
"Daytime Tiger!!!"
Inside ROOM space, shaping compressed air was trivial.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Susanoo cracked instantly—then shattered completely!
Blue chakra fragments scattered in all directions, and the lake erupted once more.
Kaito stood on the water, the White-Masked Kaito floating nearby.
"Impressive… as expected of the main body.
Your power is far beyond what a clone like me can match…"
"Don't move."
"But even that kind of attack still isn't—"
BAM!
"Ugh!!!"
A fist slammed straight into the clone's abdomen.
The clone internally cursed: You're serious?!
"I told you not to move!"
Kaito grinned happily.
Whoosh—
The White-Masked clone swapped places with a chunk of rubble.
Kaito lunged forward instantly.
White Mask:
"You can't defeat me, main body!!"
Kaito:
"The outcome was decided long ago!!"
They rushed at each other from opposite sides—
this looked like the final exchange.
At that instant, Kaito threw a kunai.
The White-Masked clone tilted his head, dodging easily—
chakra surged into his right fist. If it landed, Kaito would die instantly.
At the same time, a rapidly spinning Rasengan formed in Kaito's right hand.
Above them, Obito felt an overwhelming sense of déjà vu.
"Obito, that looks like—"
Whoosh—
Before Black Zetsu could finish, Obito's position was swapped.
The White-Masked clone grabbed Black Zetsu's head and smiled.
"Like what?"
Black Zetsu: "..."
Below, Obito stood frozen—utterly confused.
Kaito grasped the kunai engraved with the Flying Thunder God formula, pressing his hand down.
"Rasengan!"
BOOM!!!
"Ugh—ughhh—"
Kaito added cruelly,
"This is Flying Thunder God: Second Step, Obito~"
BOOOOM!!!
Water exploded sky-high.
Thankfully, Obito was wearing White Zetsu A-Fei's suit—
the one suffering most was A-Fei himself.
"AAAAAH!! It hurts! It hurts!!!"
Obito scrambled away in agony.
Kaito remained where he was.
"When it comes to betraying one's teacher… you're even worse."
Whoosh—
Before Obito could react mid-air, Kaito appeared behind him and kicked downward.
"Primary Lotus!"
BOOM!!!
Gurgle… splash…
Obito crawled out of the lake, utterly disheveled.
He didn't even know what Kaito had done.
"The Flying Thunder God mark never disappears,"
Kaito said calmly, hovering above him.
"I might not have told you that."
"The game ends here."
"You have two choices."
"One: Hand over your Mangekyō Sharingan and return to Konoha to kneel and beg."
"Two: Die here."
"Heh—don't you have ways to just take it directly?!
Why even ask?!"
Obito was desperate. Escape was impossible.
"Well…"
Kaito smiled.
Suddenly, a small black sphere flew toward Kaito.
He turned his head—finally noticing.
"Have you finally adapted to the Rinnegan…?"
"Yes."
The White-Masked clone laughed coldly.
"Thanks to you, main body."
"Now—let me send you off!!!"
RUMBLE—
Gravity warped violently.
Buildings, stones, debris—everything rose and rushed toward Kaito.
The clone glanced sideways.
Black Zetsu still hadn't moved.
"Hey."
"It's your turn."
"Hurry up!"
Black Zetsu: "?"
Your turn WHAT?! I'm already mentally broken!!
The clone turned his back invitingly.
"Quick—stab me!"
Black Zetsu nearly cried.
This wasn't in the script!!
Finally—
Shhk!
Flesh pierced.
The clone stiffened.
"C-can't move…"
"Why… Black Zetsu… I was supposed to—"
"I can't do it properly!!"
Black Zetsu used a little strength—pain surged.
The clone realized too late.
"Wait—what are you doing?!"
"There's no God Tree here!!!"
Too late.
The body began to swell violently.
Inside Chibaku Tensei, Kaito widened his eyes and immediately funneled chakra through ROOM.
"AAAAAA—!"
"Main body, I'll curse your ancestors!!!"
A fragment of the clone's soul escaped and returned to Kaito.
Kaito shattered Chibaku Tensei with a punch and heard the final words:
"Where did I go wrong…"
Wind howled.
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's consciousness fully descended.
"…Hm?"
"Black Zetsu?"
"Why did you revive me in a chakra body?!"
This body couldn't withstand her full power.
Even with massive chakra and Rinnegan… it was incomplete.
No horn.
No full purity.
A young Kaguya.
"…This works?"
Even Kaito was shocked.
He crushed Obito, sealed A-Fei, tore out the Mangekyō, and returned.
Then—
He gently grabbed Kaguya by the throat.
"Hello, Lady Kaguya."
"From today on—
you belong to me."
"You do have a physical body, right?"
Squish.
Perfectly real.
Kaguya: "..."
"Kill me if you dare."
Stab.
Her body was annihilated—
absorbed.
Kaito's eyes itched.
Moments later—
Rinnegan formed.
"…So this is it."
"Not bad."
Black Zetsu screamed.
Kaito stepped on his face.
"Weakness is a sin."
